sporty spice.

May 15, 2016

So when I was like...12ish...I wanted to be Sporty Spice, or Scary Spice, either onen really, because both were named Mel, and of course, that's my name, so I felt like I was part of the Spice Girls. I don't know how that makes sense really but I really wanted to be cool like them because I was 12 and kind of nuts. What I think was fun about style those days though was playfullness of it - they had fun! It was cool. And they looked comfortable in their 'sporty' stuff. Sporty doesn't have to be boyish, it just takes a little imagination to make it work.

That is why I love this outfit. So comfy and cool. I love the bomber because it's warm and oversized and amazing, and the shoes are so comfortable, but look pretty badass, no? And because I am running after my little munchkin all day, practical shoes are a must.

But the skort is all business. Tailored, yet short. And I'm loving it, although when we took these photos my immediate thought was OMG you need to work out your legs and get a tan. Typical. But I like the skort anyways, I don't care if I have snow white legs. Also, please excuse my crazy messy bun...sometimes I'm just so tired that I don't have time to fix that sh!t.
